I'm an Auntie!!!

Ok, got a call from Sis at 7:00 AM. I was confused because that girl rarely calls, so I wasn't expecting to hear from her. She said she was three months pregnant! There was only a little complication with the placenta, but it's all better now.

I hope all goes well, since it didn't the first time around. I'm really excited, I just wish I could be there for her throughout the whole pregnancy and, well, after. It would be nice if I had a little pumpkin of my own, so they could grow up spending summers together. Ah, well. I'll just make do with my kitties for now, and the anticipation of being this baby's favorite aunt, ehehehe

Comedy Night!!!

Tina, Angela and I went to see stand-up comedy at Pax Amicus Castle Theatre in Budd Lake (NJ); a "Battle of the Sexes" featuring Mark DeMayo, Jodi Weiner, Ophira Eisenberg, and (sorry to the guy, but I can't quite figure out his last name...) Chris Spears, Spires, Mike??? He was funny, just can't remember his name!

We had seen Mark before (he's kinda sweet lookin'), but on TV. Part of Jodi's routine, I have seen it with Lisa Lampanelli, although not live like tonight (the penis between the boobs effect translated into microphone hitting the chin?), so that was a bit disappointing. Overall though, a great experience, YAY!

The Other White Meat

Yesterday, while enjoying my second hand smoke outside my office building, I felt a little something hit my ankle. I thought it was a nice, dried leaf. Nope. I was viciously attacked by a big, chunky, light green insect.

No injuries, thank goodness, but I'm left worrying about how my being so delicious is attracting the wrong kind of animal.

Ana, the other white meat. Yummers.

Keiko

My friend Nat just told me her Siberian Husky, Keiko, passed away before she left for vacation. He was barely 10 years old! Such a beautiful dog, very furry, prettiest blue eyes you've ever seen. I am so sad.

Of course, this makes me think of my little foofies. I don't know what I'll do when they pass away. In the meantime, I better get going, and try to stop Sashimi from licking my nail file. Just...don't ask.

Dhalias

O I'm so utterly happy that I planted a couple of dahlias this year . Just look at this beauty!!! It is bigger than my face.
